The Chill Hills

The Republic of The Chill Hills is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 1.924 billion Chill Hillsians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 32.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Chill Hillsian economy, worth 66.6 trillion bitcoins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Trout Farming, Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 34,613 bitcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Chill Hills's national animal is the beaver, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Chill Hills is ranked 142,159th in the world and 136th in Wintreath for Most Corrupt Governments, with 4.04 kickbacks per hour.
